Why do foreigners still assume Thai girls are easy?

[drronnie 100]

I think it is very annoying to read on blog spots that Thailand is some kind of magical utopia for single men. Easy women are all around wanting to date white men. However the reality looks very different. I am living and working here and while the women are friendly and nice to talk too I actually think it is harder to date a Thai woman than to date in the West. 

I know the bar scene is a different story.

I think it also depends on the person. Some people are handsome, some are not, some have good social skill and some have none.

When I look at my wife's friends there are many the same age as her that are single. They don't have children, they are financially independent and they speak very good English (and some speak a third language). They have good jobs and are very pleasant to look at. They have all studied and/or travelled abroad and while they are Thai they are also open minded about other countries and cultures. Most of them would like to date a good guy (Thai or otherwise), but they have difficulty finding anyone.

 

There is definitely opportunity for good quality guys who mix in the right circles.

so you are saying its you.

 

I find it is amusing that you are differentiating between the men, yet using "thai women" as an all encompassing term. 

 

perhaps that is a part of your problem.

Well women seem to have a general standard of what they are looking in a man.

I too have found it is very easy to socialise with Thai women. I wouldn't call myself good looking by any stretch of the imagination. My Thai vocabulary is limited. Have found that if you make them smile and laugh you a re half way there. Being a 'gentleman' is an absolute must. Some liasons can lead to more romantic things and some don't. I find never go out looking for a sexual relationship if the girl likes you she will let you know.

mate, I am 63(dont look it though) and happily married but I have had very nice younger women suggest we get together, I am simply not interested and tell them so. I take it as a compliment and actually laugh it off, how any man cannot find a nice female here is beyond me. Even my wifes friends have asked me to help them find a guy and they are all very nice, single, no kids, own their own house/land and are in good jobs, they simply want a non thai guy(they dont trust the thai men), if  a western man cant find himself a nice lady there has to be something wrong with him.

Thai women are easy to approach and socialize unless you are socially awkward or if you are an outright rude person.

I would have to say it is easier here, than in the West, for sure. However there are alot of variables. Just like in the west, you have to have something to offer, in the way of humor, good looks, a playful spirit, the ability to communicate, the willingness to go out of your way, the courage to do so, an optimistic nature, a certain degree of affection and respect for local people, a nice, well groomed appearance, and in some cases the ability to offer at least some financial security. No doubt the bar has been raised over the past 10 years, and most Thai women are looking for more in a foreigner, than before.

 

But, there are alot of nice Thai women out there, who would like nothing more than a good foreign man, to hook up with.

Seconded. There are women who are looking for decent men however some foreigners still think that just by being a from a rich country gives them some kind of a bonus and then they end up with nothing to offer. Resulting them to becoming bitter and saying that women are the same everywhere.

and some have large bulges in their wallet pocket.

That explains why people like Jagger still get young women despite being old and anything but handsome.

on the basis of what one ex - girlfriend told me in the 70's, jagger's genital bulges and abilities far exceeded his financial ones for a loooong time...

and i am really happy for him, honestly!

Are you joking? I disagree big time. Thai girls are lovely and sexy, and they crave attention. I have been fortunate enough to have dated and bedded quite a few non-bar girls some more than 10 years younger than me.
